How to determine the size of men's gloves
Buying things "at random" is irrational. If we are talking about a regular store, trying on five sizes of the same thing can be called a waste of time. If about an online purchase - throwing money away: who knows if a thing, the size of which is chosen by eye, will fit.
So that gloves bought in the online store do not have to be given away or thrown away, you just need to remember your size. The recommendations on this page will help determine it.
Determine the size of men's gloves according to the table
To determine the size of men's gloves, you need to measure the girth of the brush at the widest point without the thumb. To make the measurement as accurate as possible, and the purchased gloves are comfortable, the arm can be bent. So the volume will turn out a little more than in a straightened position, and this is good: it means that the gloves will not restrict movement.
You probably noticed that the sizes of gloves vary from 6 to 12, and the girth of an adult's hand is much larger. The secret is that gloves are measured in French feet: it is equal to 2.7 cm. To find out the size, the girth of the palm must be divided by this number. A figure close to this value should be looked for in the size table if you want to know, for example, its letter designation.
Let's take an example of how to determine the size of men's gloves. Let's say the girth of your brush is 25 cm. If you divide 25 by 2.7, you get 9.2. Guided by advice on choosing gloves, it is better to buy leather gloves in size 9.5, and textile gloves in size 9.
How to choose the size of men's gloves that will be comfortable and warm?
Let's look at the material. Leather gloves, if they stretch, then quite a bit, so it's best to take your size. But with knitted models, the situation is completely different: they stretch well and keep their shape, which means that you need to buy them only in your size or even smaller.
Leather gloves need to be bought ¼ sizes larger than necessary: only in this case they will keep warm. If the gloves are small or the right size, they will be cold and uncomfortable.
Leather gloves should not be worn in rain and snow and, moreover, should not be dried on a radiator. For wet weather, knitted, cashmere or fleece models are better suited.
It is important to remember: in the size chart for men's clothing and gloves, women's and men's models have a different letter designation. For example, a male L corresponds to a volume of 8 - 8.5, and a female - 7 ½.
